Bharuch

The CNO Foundation (at the Rijksmusem) tried to save as much as possible of the Indian-Dutch monuments. Unfortunately CNO did not survive the 1990s. In Bharuch, North of Surat, CNO financed in 1978 a fence around the Dutch period cemetary. Martine Wolff asked me in 1989 to put on slides what was left.

Unfortunately, nothing much. Housing projects were nearing the small cemetary just outside Bharuch (Gujarat).

The only dome shaped grave in Bharuch showed cracks.
